Total sense

No, ironically the one on the right was for ages.
-
UPS and FedEx cost the same though.
-
Even if it is, private companies cost the same
-
I only do when my daughter is staying somewhere and doesn’t have food to eat. That’s rare, but it has happened a few times.
-
If there was a service like this, I'd probably buy there every day. I can plan 1-2 days ahead what I'd like to eat, but more is harder. This would be perfect.
there are like subscription services that deliver partially prepared meals to your door
-
the economic ignorance in this thread is astounding
-
How much is same-day courier service though?
Not just same day, same hour. That 1/3 cost comes with a 50x delay.
-
We don't, unless it's alot of food. So much food in fact that the equivalent sized package would cost more than $10.50 for USPS to take 3+ days to deliver.
I love USPS but this whole thread makes people look like they've been huffing markers all afternoon.

It isn't really.

That's not at all what I implied or meant but thank you for assuming I'm the worst person ever for pushing back against someone being proud they can just get off their ass and pick up food.
Yes, Uber Eats is a cancer but I've known people to count down to the cents so their account won't be overdrawn so that they can order one hot meal delivered. Yes I absolutely think it is in the monetization plans of all the delivery apps to take advantage of people in that situation, I was just trying to point out "get off your ass and pick it up" isn't a viable option for everyone. Also, not everyone is the best at math or managing their money.

I don't have any contracts with them and it's usually about the same cost for USPS or UPS via ground for like a 12" square box for example. USPS might be like 5% less on average.
-
Thankfully food delivery isn't essential, therefore it should be privatized (preferably by a restaurant that delivers to places hundreds of miles away by plane)
-
Sometimes, people really want their taco order to ride on its own private taxi.
-
USPS is the most underappreciated thing in the world. In the shittiest areas I've ever lived it's still been fairly reliable. In a nice area, forget about it, perfect.
-
See the giant bag? He's got multiple orders in it.
-
"Essential" is your criteria? To be clear, you're saying that anything that's an actual human need, should be state run?

The mail is, yes.

Government vs private.
It's the same with healthcare believe it or not.
